Stevenson’s army, August 21
– WSJ has another good ticktock, this one of what was happening in Kabul.
– WSJ also has a collection of “what went wrong” articles. I call your attention to the pieces by Eliot Cohen and Steve Walt.
– FT describes how Taliban finances its operations.
– WaPo has a piece on the Trump deal with the Taliban; NYT noted we don’t know what was in the secret annexes.
– Politico says Biden is keeping a hard line on Cuba.
– GAO is investigating the selection of Alabama over Colorado for the Space Command. Trump now takes sole credit.
